Grand Opening at Swiftwater Cellars

Last weekend was the opening of Swiftwater Cellars - the new winery in Suncadia. All year long we've been patiently awaiting this weekend and we finally got to see inside the 41,000 sq ft facility! We attended the ribbon cutting ceremony on Friday morning with about 200 other people. Friday's ceremony also included wine tasting, opening of Hoist House restaurant & access to the gift shop. Our photos do not do justice to how beautiful & HUGE this winery is so please do yourself a favor and at least stop by on your next visit to Suncadia.

Donnie Watts (general manager), his family & employees talk about the history of the area and the future of the winery.

"We are officially open for business!" -Lori Watts

Copper fire places will be very popular when enjoying a glass of wine during the winter months!

Donnie & his wife, Megan Watts, have not only been busy building & managing their own winery but also have an infant daughter Sofia. Her 'hollywood star' can be found at the entrance of the winery.

A crowd of people finally get their first look inside the winery!

VIP parking for those who drive pink scooters.

A floor to ceiling fireplace stands 2 stories tall in the Fireside Room.

Several lounge areas to enjoy a bottle of wine.

A large gift shop is full of apparel & decor.

For my mother who loves a fake moose head.

For the grand opening on Saturday, the winery held an outdoor concert featuring Countryfied & Lonestar!

An aerial photo on No. 9 is displayed in the Fireside Room.

The Hoist House features casual fare with wood fire pizzas, paninis during the week and fine dining on the weekends.

The 41,000 sq ft building lies on the No. 9 coal mine, the last operating coal mine in the Roslyn area.

The winery features historic pieces to honor the mining culture.

A 360-degree bar connects the Hoist House restaurant and the wine tasting area.

The Fireside Room offers beautiful views of the Rope Rider Golf Course.

The No. 9 mine shaft opening closed in 1963 marking an end to coal mining.
